MORTAL ALLIES

Sean Drummond and Katherine Carson fought so much in law school that the faculty decreed they not be allowed in the same building. Now they're thrown together in a Korean court case defending a homosexual Army captain accused of brutal crimes against his lover. Scott Brick exploits every possible opportunity to showcase the humor in Haig's pseudo-thriller, performing the highly intelligent but emotionally inept Major Drummond with a hilarious realism that can only come from experience. His portrayals of corrupt government officials, angry lesbians, jaded CIA agents, and a surprisingly complex accused killer round out the listening experience. R.P.L.
